All the goddesses in the world are lusting after my body.

"I should be the one saying that! Stop staring at me like that!"

Liu Qingqing lowered her voice; she couldn't lose her elegance and composure, at least not in front of her other classmates.

Therefore, the debate must be kept within an acceptable level of intensity.

Not to mention, she and Jiang Tang didn't actually have any real conflict. At most, she was a little annoyed with him, and Jiang Tang was the kind of person who was so overly familiar that it made people feel awkward.

Moreover, after hearing Liu Qingqing's words, he innocently raised his eyebrows and widened his eyes slightly. In the bright sunlight, his pupils were like gilded amber, which was amazing. If you stared at them for a long time, you would even be drawn into them and unable to extricate yourself.

"I was just thinking of your aunt, and if my gentle gaze offended you, then I'll apologize."

"..."

It really is completely...flawless.

Jiang Tang could have just watched it openly and honestly. Then he added, "Seeing someone reminds me of someone else. What else can Liu Qingqing do?"

She really does look like her aunt, Liu Chuyun!

It was precisely because of this that Liu Qingqing felt even more ashamed. At this moment, she even clenched her small fists and placed them on her knees with a look of endurance. Her legs, which were originally open, suddenly tightened.

Because of her resemblance to her aunt, Liu Qingqing often had wild thoughts.

For example, the scene of Jiang Tang and his aunt talking about love could easily be replaced in her mind with the scene of Jiang Tang talking about love with herself.

Even some of the more stimulating scenes that couldn't be broadcast made Liu Qingqing blush more and more, yet she couldn't help but think about them.

On this point, perhaps the two sisters, Mu Yuqing and Mu Yunyi, can share some common ground with Liu Qingqing.

Because whether it's the older sister or the younger sister, seeing the other being pampered by Brother Jiang Tang, they felt, in a daze, as if it were themselves... The feeling that arose from the bottom of their hearts was more ambiguous than a tacit understanding.

Jiang Tang then noticed that she was wearing black pantyhose with butterfly-like patterns, which peeked out from under her pencil skirt, like a golden summer day.

Jiang Tang's gaze was about to fall downwards, but a Spider-Man-like "danger perception" made him cough lightly and raise his eyes again, focusing on the empty desk in front of him.

Humans certainly cannot have superpowers, but it is undeniable that some people are born with keen senses.

For example, Liu Qingqing noticed Jiang Tang's gaze, and Jiang Tang quickly shifted his target even before Liu Qingqing's murderous gaze fell upon him.

At the same time, he thought to himself that next time he had the chance to go on a date with Chu Yun, he would definitely make her wear pantyhose too...

Liu Qingqing glared at Jiang Tang, who had already "fled in fear of punishment," but her gaze was utterly harmless.

She was originally planning to change seats, but the teacher's arrival and the fact that the second seat next to her was suddenly taken by a late student became coincidences that prevented Liu Qingqing from having such an idea.

As we all know, people generally don't sit next to strangers.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, university classrooms are often filled with people who know each other sitting together. Jiang Tang and Liu Qingqing should also be considered acquaintances.

Strangers would sit one seat apart and remain quietly by themselves.

Clearly, Liu Qingqing was more embarrassed than sitting with Jiang Tang than suddenly moving to another seat and having to endure the surprised look of a stranger.

Needless to say, it was a boy!

If you suddenly move close to someone, it's an extremely awkward situation, regardless of whether it's misunderstood or not.

So in the end, there was no other way, and Liu Qingqing had no choice but to continue sitting with Jiang Tang.

For some reason, when she finally made this decision, Liu Qingqing felt much more at ease.

Or perhaps... Liu Qingqing herself didn't have such a strong desire to leave Jiang Tang's side.

265. Cuteness is insignificant compared to sexiness.

Or perhaps... Liu Qingqing herself didn't have such a strong desire to leave Jiang Tang's side.

Otherwise, asking that student to move aside and going to sit in another seat is also a viable option.

In short, Jiang Tang and Liu Qingqing simply sat down in their current positions.

Moreover, the two seemed quite natural with each other; at least Liu Qingqing felt that having Jiang Tang by her side wasn't so bad after all...

She still had to put on an act, so Liu Qingqing cleared her throat and became even more dignified and elegant.

Her neck was long and slender, like a swan's. Her slightly lowered gaze was focused on the open "Boule de Suif". The pages, still smelling of ink, were turned by her delicate fingers, page after page. What a typical literary girl.

But Liu Qingqing did not maintain this posture for long.

She tried to focus her attention on the collection of short stories in front of her, but after quickly flipping through a few pages and trying to get into the book, she found that she just couldn't concentrate.

Instead, Jiang Tang's every move was closely watched.

"Speaking of which, why did you choose this course?" Jiang Tang suddenly asked curiously, seemingly unaware of the trouble and distress he had caused Liu Qingqing.

Although that was just a pose Liu Qingqing deliberately put on to avoid suspicion, she probably didn't dislike Jiang Tang being by her side.

"...Is there anything strange about it? This class is so easy, anyone would choose it."

Liu Qingqing recalled that when she was a freshman in college, she didn't know that there were such courses that allowed you to get credits. She foolishly chose an elective course taught by a very strict teacher, and the process was simply torture.

Even at the end of the semester, there is an exam, and if you don't pass, the whole semester will have been wasted!

Now she's learned her lesson and will never choose elective courses that require exams again. She'll just pick easy ones like these, courses that only require a few reflections to earn credits—they're so appealing!

As for Japanese anime and such... she didn't know much about it, but since it's entertainment, it might be quite interesting.

"Oh, I almost thought you were a hidden anime fan."

Jiang Tang crossed his arms and then rested them on the desk, lazily resting his chin on them.

He smiled and continued.

"This reminds me of a common trope in Japanese light novels from over a decade ago: the female protagonist is a high-achieving, unattainable beauty at the top of the school. If it were in China, it would be translated as 'school beauty'."

"Beneath the proud and aloof exterior of this school beauty lies a huge secret: she is actually a homebody. At this time, the ordinary male protagonist discovers her secret, and then the two embark on a series of romantic comedies."

Because the conversation turned to areas that interested him, Jiang Tang couldn't help but say a few more words.

"..."

Jiang Tang's thoughts suddenly wandered and he couldn't figure out what to do with Liu Qingqing.

But she was acutely aware that Jiang Tang considered her the "school beauty".

It should be noted that, because of the presence of a certain student council president, the proud Liu Qingqing is still the most beautiful girl in the college to this day, while An Hongdou will likely remain the most beautiful girl in the school until graduation, and no one can shake her position.

But Jiang Tang compared himself to a "school beauty".

The weight of these words caused Liu Qingqing's face to flush slightly.

Thinking to herself, although Jiang Tang was a bad guy who deceived her aunt, he still had good judgment...

No woman dislikes being praised.

If so, perhaps he should reflect on whether what this woman dislikes is "his praise".

"I...haven't read a novel like this before. Is it interesting?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Tang blinked. However, this was within his expectations. A normal young lady would not be a hidden otaku, as described in novels.

That kind of storyline is destined to be the desire and fantasy of otaku.

"It's quite interesting, but as a formula, it's outdated now."

"If you haven't read the novel, have you watched the anime?"

Jiang Tang then asked.

"Anime...you mean, cartoons?"

Jiang Tang couldn't help but smile slightly, thinking that if the anime and manga fans heard Liu Qingqing's words, they would probably be attacked.

Clearly, most anime fans don't want their cherished anime to be seen as cartoons for children.

Although these two concepts are consistent to some extent.

Therefore, Jiang Tang nodded.

"almost."

"I've seen it, Chibi Maruko-chan, when I was little... on the computer."

Suddenly revealing her childhood memories, Liu Qingqing blushed slightly; she was quite shy.

Jiang Tang's mouth opened slightly.

When I was a child... I mean more than ten years ago, right?

Back then, Liu Qingqing could watch Chibi Maruko-chan on a computer. What kind of family did she come from?

This is the ultimate example of a "normie" – Liu Qingqing, who only watched Chibi Maruko-chan as a child, is the complete opposite of Jiang Tang, a "nerd" who spends all his free time watching anime with Shi Xue.

Undoubtedly, Liu Qingqing's real life is very fulfilling. She lives a comfortable life, has a near-perfect appearance, and the financial power bestowed upon her by her aunt allows her to thrive in social situations. She has endless time to travel around, experience skiing and paragliding, and has become a veritable "rising star" in a certain website's promotional video.

The thought of myself influencing these young people with the colors of otaku and gradually turning them into one of the apes in the world of anime and manga is infuriating.

Jiang Tang's heart was filled with the joy of a bountiful harvest.

Liu Qingqing felt uneasy under Jiang Tang's gaze, which made her subconsciously feel guilty.

"W-What's wrong? Is it strange that you haven't watched any anime?"

"Ahem, of course it's not surprising. But since you've managed to get into this class, you should at least have some interest in anime to make the most of the time."

Jiang Tang explained this matter as a matter of course.

"Liu Qingqing, you're not planning to ignore everything and just read this book for the entire class, are you?"

"..."

Although I was very unhappy, I couldn't find any reason to refute it for the time being.

Because that's exactly what Liu Qingqing thought.

Compared to entertainment activities like watching anime, Liu Qingqing believes that reading the works of masters can provide more valuable insights.

Furthermore, it seemed that even she herself did not realize that when Jiang Tang called out "Liu Qingqing", her brows furrowed slightly.

Is it because in Liu Qingqing's heart, the title "senior sister" is clearly more to her liking than being called by Jiang Tang's name directly?

Listening to Jiang Tang's words, Liu Qingqing's gaze wandered. After thinking it over, she realized that with Jiang Tang around, she couldn't concentrate on her studies. Moreover, in this atmosphere of everyone watching anime together, being too "sober in a drunken world" would easily annoy others. More importantly, it might also incur the teacher's displeasure.

In the end, as Jiang Tang had wished, Liu Qingqing chose to close the book.

"...I understand, I'll watch anime with you."
